Collins Vacation Rentals, Inc. has a long history on St. George Island, starting in 1973 when Alice D. Collins founded Alice Collins Realty. Over the years, the company grew and changed, joining CENTURY 21 in 1992 before becoming Collins Vacation Rentals Inc. in 1994. The company is led by a dedicated owner who has guided it through many summers, hurricanes, and a fire in the 1980s that destroyed the original building. Thanks to community support, the business was rebuilt and continues to serve visitors today. Guests praise the well-maintained and comfortable homes, such as Sunshine and Whiskey, Reel Close, and The Heron’s Nest. These rentals are praised for their great locations near the beach, with some just a short walk away. Many homes are well-appointed, with fully stocked kitchens, private pools, and peaceful surroundings. Guests appreciate helpful and friendly staff, especially when they needed assistance with WiFi or other questions. While some mention minor issues like slow appliances or cosmetic imperfections, these do not detract from the overall positive experience. The properties are often described as clean, spacious, and perfect for relaxing vacations, making Collins Vacation Rentals a popular choice for visitors to St. George Island.
The Katie Leigh is tastefully appointed and outfitted with everything one needs for a quiet, relaxing and memorable beach vacation, and the little bag of every-day but often forgotten necessities was a great touch! We highly recommend this little beach house and the Collins rental agency. Memories are made here!
